Opening scene was around 5 mins so I was still able to grab some snacks. I like the romance without being too cheesy. I really enjoyed the well-choreograph dancing. Even the fight scenes looked more like dancing than brawl. Very good movie!"

West Side Story - #2August 7, 2018"I really love the scene where Gene Kelly sang the Singing in the Rain song. I could only imagine myself on his shoes, finally noticed by my crush! Wouldn't I dance all smiles in the middle of the rain like that? Aside from this, I like how the movie shows a little bit about the silent's film evolution towards movies with voices. The sets are really so fantastic!"

Singin' in the Rain - #3August 7, 2018"I've never encountered any musical movie as delightful and enchanting as this one. I love how this movie celebrates little joys around. Not to mention that this was made a little shortly after the world war! How depressing is that! It must have take a lot of inspiration from the screenwriters to still achieve a genuine movie such as this."

How delightful is that? The visual effects might not be too good compared to today but the music and songs are so lovely! This is a must-watch classic."

My Fair Lady - #6August 7, 2018"This movie has a lot of singing maybe around 95%? I ain't the biggest fan of musicals but I thoroughly enjoyed Les Mis. The performance are fantastic. Everyone performed really well, especially Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman."

Les Miserables - #7April 25, 2019"Its a great adapatation of the classic rock album, and in my opinion the definitive performance ever. Carl Anderson as Judas can't be beat, and Ted Neeley as Jesus gives me goosebumps everytime I hear Gethsemane again."

Chicago - #9August 7, 2018"The visuals are elaborate I must say, and gave off the feeling of an actual opera. Yet the story execution was kinda dragging and some parts were kinda confusing. So this movie is kinda alright for me."
